A Tonic in the True Sense of the Word.

Not all medicinal preparations called tonics are such. A mere stimulant cf rppetite, which gives g simple “ fillip to Nature ” —which removes no obstacle to her processes in the human system, is in no true sense a tonic. Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters cot only far transcends in purity the ordinary unmedicated stimulants of commerce, the cheap local bitters, and eye-openers vended as tonics, but where they are powerless to do more than Impart a temporary stimulus to appetite, tho Bitters restores digestion, remedies biliousness and insures regularity in the habit of body. It is, therefore, a tonic in the true sense of the word, for does it not renew harmony of tone in the most important functions of the body, Avhere all before was discordant, feeble, and inharmonious? Besides this, its invigorating and regulating effects constitute it the best possible safeguard against malarial diseases. It conquers rheumatism, kidney complaints, and nervousness.
